I hope I don't meet Chad the Bad in a dark alley anytime, even though he sounds like a pal in the end... Love that guitar jam! So fun to hear new music from the wonderful Proods! Hope you all are well.
This song is based on the account of a friend, who had a drunken fling with a stranger at a party and regretted it BEFORE she sobered up. The title is a reference to the 1986 movie River's Edge, and the character played by Danyi Deats.
lyrics…
Heyyyy, welcome back. The sound is bright and delightful as always. I gotta say, the retro pop is apparent but never sounds like it's languishing in the past. It's a bubbly optimism that is sorely missing in garage rock.
She wakes across the ocean, and sighs when she discovers...the man who's sleeping with her looks like her last two lovers. No one wants to be a banana head.
This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn't help wondering if any of them had survived. I'd like to think that there were a couple of 'em…

This song was recorded with another verse, it ties the song together nicely but who the heck wants to listen to a 5 minute song about depressing stuff? We're really looking forward to feedback from those of you who've like…
The Proods have too many unfinished songs in the hopper...so much going on, but this is something we worked on years ago. I remixed it and finally think it might be passable.

So we're locked down, and got bored, so we downloaded the stems for Fleetwood Mac's track, ditched all the vocals and rerecorded them.
Billy then remixed and mastered the track.
I hope we haven't butchered it too much if it's one of your…
In light of what's going on today my mind has been racing nonstop to digest the situation. I had to put this track into a higher perspective.

-Destruction

Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…
I wrote this song while out hiking some awesome trails in Zion National Park... gave me some excellent inspiration. I also tried some different stuff with the mixing and using my keyboard... so trying to push a few of my envelopes...
Here…
I love Wilsun's 2020 RPM album "Departure", so I decided to cover it (yes, the whole album), but with a twist. I found some bits to be repetitive, so I removed them. I wrote down the lyrics and chords, and promptly ignored the originals, making…
Ukulele and vocals performed by Jazz, 12.
She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.
DEEPER
Every day I sink a little deeper
Two steps up. Three steps back.
I'd rather be dead than be a sleeper
I'm not coming back...

It’s amazing. I was on my way to a play tonight and Cindy Loveless came on my IPod and I wondered when I’m going to here more of your work. My only wish is that you’d let us here some of the rough cut stuff.
Your wonderful music has a depth that leaves me in awe. You've created a world of imagery that is genuinely unique...non-duplicable! I'll always come back to this music.
Hey Brett I made a special trip back to the land of Alonetone for the sole purpose of hearing this song. Sorry as hell that I didn't check in sooner, but I have to once again praise your imaginative work! So freaking original...I envy your creativity!
After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!

Hi JC, Fun tune. Do you still have a copy of the movie?
I hope I don't meet Chad the Bad in a dark alley anytime, even though he sounds like a pal in the end... Love that guitar jam! So fun to hear new music from the wonderful Proods! Hope you all are well.

Another good'n. I thought I commented on this before, guess not! Very tight performance, cool bass line and lovely vocals.
Good one, I really like the mix, especially the drums and electric. Melty and retro crunchy!
What a darkly inspiring song! Your ability to combine whimsy and tragic imagery is wonderful!
love it. getting that Beatles roll around..
Capturing the early 60's English beat in their own way! The Proods !
I love it. Good energy.
*applause* The Awesome Proods.
yes, great title and a true Proods tune. Listen to that wonderful reverb sparkling layer of guitar goodness.
This is fun, it's kinda 70's Ray Davies-y... which of course I'm a sucker for.
Been too long man, had to revisit to get some Proods in.
Like the song guys, reminiscent of a 60s sound to me. nice to hear from you again.
Glad to see you're back at it! I enjoy the dreamy flow of it, the flanged/trem guitar is nice and robust.
rockin! now im going around humming this with people looking at me like im crazy.
Hey Joe! Great song. I recognize who it’s about....he would have loved this! Email me a copy of the long version, please!
Well done gang...can't wait to hear the 5 minute version.
Nice fresh sound. I love the tremolo. Been a long time, it's fun to hear a new one.
Love the minor melody lines that sneak up and surprise you... Missed hearing your lovely voices Proods! Another great one!

Indeed, you've got it! It feels a little Soylent Green-ish to me. Great work!
Perfect lyrics.
So much to hear. Excellent.
SO GREAT!
You've GOTTA be working on something.
Yeah...still a fan! This is very interesting.
Fun!
jazzy greatness
Love this...nothing better than the ambience of a live club show! Great tune!
Amazing!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! Not enough caps, nor enough exclamation points!
Such a catchy groove!

Too good...I like this song.
I love this! It's amazing!
